Watch The Windows

By island warrior

Freight train of fury
Running in a straight line
Fueled by the torment
Of the words you unwind

Why must you toy
With what is unknown
The power of aggression
Differing from your own

Frightening thoughts
Splashing my mind
Taking over commonsense
Reality left behind

Speech is impaired
Vision unclear
Full of adrenalin
Void of all fear

Like looking through the windows
Of a house that is burning
Feel the intensity
Flames twisting and turning

So take heed my friend
Of the message that's given
Beware of the danger
And the way that it's hidden

Judge not by the cover
The friendly disguise
Look through the windows
It's all in the eyes
